How to Get Rid of Blood Blisters

Blood blisters occur when the blood vessels under the skin’s surface get damaged. The blisters appear as red, fluid-filled bumps and tend to be very painful.

They are mainly caused by skin trauma such as forceful pinching or similar injury and typically occur on the hands and feet.

While most blood blisters are not serious and will eventually heal on their own, there are many effective home remedies to minimize the discomfort and prevent infection. Do not pop the blood blister because it can cause infection and delay healing.

Here are the top 10 ways to get rid of blood blisters. We would recommend the 1st remedy as the best, the effectiveness of the rest of the remedies may vary from one person to another.

What I did today was cut a thin slice of cucumber, put it over the blister. Put on a tight fitting sock. Get some cellotape and cellotape around the sock securing the cucumber in place. Carry on as normal, changing your sock 2per day. In the past, i’ve used aloe vera in the same fashion. Peel some aloe vera, remove thorns. place over blister, with gely side touching the blister and secure as above. In both cases the cucumber/aloevera acts as a cushion and reduces the pain of walking on the blister. I knew cucumber was an excellent moisturiser but i didn’t know about it’s additional benifits.

tobasco sauce, heated up to about 110 degrees (F), is the 2nd worst thing you can put on a blood blister. Obviously the worst being to cut it open and put a few drops of hydrochloric acid inside. probably shouldn’t carve it out with an apple corer either…just sayin’.

Enjoy The Tabasco sauce remedy comment!!! I am a big Tabasco Sauce fan. But I will let it heal on its own. But going to use the cucumber on the skin to prevent future ones? My hands get these most often. I cant always wear my gloves.

I think Witch Hazel is great for a lot of things. Its a cheap remedy for the chest soreness of a chest cold(from the coughing). I Rub on face with sinus headaches too. & a good soak in Epsom Salts for aching bodies is nice. Helps sore muscles and cramps. But I keep Gator Ade on hand for cramping muscles too, that is if the electrolytes are out of whack it works on it. Otherwise get blood checked for Magnesium etc. to get the cause. Raw Garlic is great as a natural antibiotic. has been said to cure through frequent application external tumors. But, don’t use on open wounds.
